MECHATRONICS

Mechatronics is offered as a block class at CCCHS.  This means that students are in this class for two consecutive class periods.  This class is heavy in hands-on application of the material related to the standards.  Strengths in mathematics and science are helpful.

Our class is offered as a dual-enrollment course with TCAT-Dickson for Juniors or Seniors with no additional work or exams.  Mechatronics is great for those seeking to enter trade school or study engineering.

Prerequisites:  Principles of Manufacturing

​

Strengths in Math and Science are advantageous.
